Sax Properties is based in Washington, DC, and our founder grew up here. We know the rowhouses, semi-detached homes and older single-family houses that make up so much of the city. Many were built generations ago. That often means old wiring, tired plumbing, roof leaks or basements that need work before a typical buyer will finance them.
DC owners call us for all kinds of reasons. You may have inherited a family home, fallen behind on the mortgage or taxes, or have a rental with tenants you’re tired of managing. We make a fair, no-obligation cash offer, usually within 24 hours. You skip the repairs, showings, fees and commissions. We pay all closing costs, and you can close in as little as 7 days.

A simpler way to sell in Washington, DC
Sell as-is, in any condition
No repairs, painting or deep cleaning. No staging, showings or open houses.
Zero fees, zero commissions
We charge nothing to buy your house, and we pay all of the closing costs.
You choose the closing date
Close in as little as 7 days, or schedule settlement weeks or months out.
Most DC foreclosures are nonjudicial, and the lender must send a notice of default with mediation information before moving ahead. You may be able to reinstate the loan up to 5 business days before a sale, and there’s no right to redeem after it. Estates go through the Probate Division of DC Superior Court, which appoints a personal representative who can sell the home. This is general information, not legal advice. Talk to an attorney or a free HUD-approved housing counselor.

Can I sell a DC house that’s going through probate?
Usually, yes. In DC, the Probate Division of Superior Court appoints a personal representative who can sell estate property. We can work with you and your attorney on timing so the closing date fits the estate.
